Elegant and athletic 2007 Region 3 Champion Open Grand Prix horse ridden by professional Jason Canton, earning 67.9% from judges Linda Zang and Kay Meredith. Originally, schooled by an Adult Amateur, they showed in their first Grand Prix for both horse and rider in 2005, scoring 67.5%. In 2008, Duvallier and Canton placed 3rd at Palm Beach Derby CDI Grand Prix Special 66.32%, 6th at Wellington CDI at Grand Prix Special and 3rd at the Paxton Farm CDI Grand Prix Freestyle. Overall, Duvallier/Canton placed 14th in the USDF Grand Prix Horse of the Year 2007 out of 127 Grand Prix ranked horses.

Duvallier earns '8's' on his walk, extended trot, trot half passes, and '7’s' on passage, tempi changes, pirouettes and collective marks. USEF selected Duvallier/Canton to train with Klaus Balkenhol at USET Official High Performance training session during Florida 2008 season.

Duvallier is a very competitive, kind horse for an experienced Adult Amateur or Young Rider. An up and coming Professional could easily earn their Gold Medal and win at all local shows. Owner originally selling last year because he has two other horses, but waited a year to allow Collecting Gaits Farm's new trainer Jason Canton to earn a proven Grand Prix reputation at USEF High Performance Dressage level. Duvallier must go to a good home.
